Both options and many more in between are available in Prague and there is also a rapidly increasing number of rooms and apartments offered by Airbnb.The prices range from CZK 250 for a bed in a hostel dorm to CZK 4500 for a double room in a 5 star hotel. An apartment on Airbnb in the city centre is approx. CZK 1700.

Czech cuisine

Unless you’re staying in an apartment and plan to spend your precious holidays in the kitchen explore places to eat in Prague. Many restaurants offer international cuisine but we recommend to try Czech cuisine as well. Although not as mouthwatering as Thai, Czech dumplings may seem exotic to you in their own way. You will geta meal in a restaurant for an average price of CZK 120, a cup of coffee for CZK 45 and a pint of beer for CZK 35.

The fastest and cheapest way to get around Prague

Public transportation is the easiest and by far the fastest way to get around Prague. One ticket is valid for 30 minutes for all kinds of transport and it costs CZK 24. If you want to travel more in a day it’s better to geta day pass for CZK 110.

Tip: For great views of Prague, take a cable car up the Petřín hill using the public transport ticket or take the tram number 22 which crosses the city centre and passes many popular sights along the way.

If you’re looking for an alternative to public transport you can book a Prague segway tour or a ride in a vintage car around the city centre.

Sports & Fun

When you’ve had enough of sightseeing, have some fun. You will get 2 cinema tickets for CZK 320, 2 tickets to a theatre can be CZK 1300 if you choose good seats and the price is similar for classical music concert tickets as well. If you opt for a sports experience instead, entrance to a swimming pool is usually around CZK 120.
